Film, Animation and Digital Arts University of Surrey

Overview

The  Film, Animation and Digital Arts programme offered by the University of Surrey seeks to develop your core creative competences in a range of relevant contemporary practices, from 3D computer graphics to machine vision, interactive cinema to 'immersive' media. 

Career opportunities

• Semester 1 includes a set of focused workshops designed not only to consolidate existing practical skills in script development, film production, animation, CG and VFX but also to bring you rapidly up to speed in less familiar areas such as virtual production, game engines, and digital cinematography. These are accompanied by a thorough grounding in contemporary moving image theory and practice. You will then work on a collaborative, multidisciplinary production project, which provides a great opportunity to work together in a small team on an exciting creative brief. In Semester 2 you will develop a creative specification for your final project. Alongside this, specialist workshops and tutorials are offered to equip you with any specific techniques you might need. During the University’s summer period, you will complete your final project, with regular supervision and mentoring provided by our academics, industry based visiting tutors and associates. The programme will provide you with an accelerated career path into numerous areas of the film, television and interactive media sectors, equipping you with sought-after skills and experience in these exciting fields. On successful completion of the course, your creative aptitude will be matched by technical acuity in whichever areas you have chosen to specialise. 100 per cent of Music and Media postgraduate students go on to employment or further study (Graduate Outcomes 2024, HESA)
